Beyond Chris Brown & Usher: Female Artists Inspired By Michael Jackson

- By

Rihanna

Rihanna has been inspired by many great artists from the 80s and 90s. MJ’s musical influence has been so great, she sampled him in a hit song about NOT stopping the music. It makes sense. “Don’t Stop the Music” features “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” lyrics, “Mama-say mama-sah ma-ma-coo-sah.” Although the phrase wasn’t originally featured in his hit, Michael was still the one who popularized it.
